When obj->kconfig is NULL, ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM) should not be returned
directly, err=-ENOMEM should be set, and then goto out.
The commit message needs to say what the problem is that the patch is
fixing.  Here is a better commit message:

[PATCH bpf-next v3 2/2] libbpf: Fix the possible memory leak on error

If the strdup() fails then we need to call bpf_object__close(obj) to
avoid a resource leak.

Add a Fixes tag as well.
Agree, Thanks.

After Andrii reviews the patch, I will resend a new patch.
